name: rowrecord version: 0.1 license: BSD3 license-file: LICENSE synopsis: Build records from lists of strings, as from CSV files. category: Data, Text author: Keegan McAllister maintainer: Keegan McAllister build-type: Simple cabal-version: >=1.2 description: Given rows of @String@ data with column headings, this library will create values of user-defined record types. Records can contain mandatory or optional fields of any type, subject to a class constraint. Heading names and and record construction code are derived using Template Haskell. . One use case for this library is parsing records from a CSV file. A parser from CSV to @[[String]]@ is not included, but there are several suitable packages on Hackage. . The emphasis of this library is on simplicity of use rather than performance. It is likely to be suitable for a hundred thousand rows, but not many millions. A future version may support packed input formats like @ByteString@ or @Text@. Suggestions and patches are welcome. library exposed-modules: Text.RowRecord , Text.RowRecord.TH ghc-options: -Wall build-depends: base >= 3 && < 5 , template-haskell >= 2.4 , containers >= 0.3
